As if to prove that amongst feminists Japan is seen as an errant nation of yellow perverts who don’t know what’s good for themselves, the Queen of Sweden has proclaimed to the Japanese people that they must pursue an ever greater witch-hunt against the uncertain dangers of “child exploitation”, despite the fact that her own nation has the highest rates of sexual violence in all Europe, whilst Japan has some of the lowest in the world.

“We can’t ignore the issue of child pornography. To solve the problem, we can only keep fighting. We want each person to take this matter to heart, and report problematic images and acts as much as possible wherever they are found.”

Specifically, she demands Japan implement the same laws which have made the likes of Sweden such crime-free paradises:

“Criminalising all possession of these materials is a very significant move. I earnestly wish Japan to undertake this reform.”

Queen Silvia herself is popular in Sweden, and often works with a variety of child-related charities, notably UNICEF, though in recent years she has been the subject of unwelcome curiosity with the revelation that her wealthy industrialist father was a member of the Nazi party.

Interestingly, Sweden, a nation dominated by the most extreme of feminist and left-wing policies, according to independent researchers has by far the highest rates of rape in Europe, exceeding even the UK by a factor of two, and also has very high rates of crime in general.

Perhaps dealing with the troubles of her own nation is not as easy as merely demanding changes in another…

I wonder if this will be the beginning of the end? While I don't think Japan will take orders from some European nation simply beacuse of pride, but once the international nagging grows Japan will have to fold eventually, ironically also because of their pride to save face.

Not this shit again. Remember, it's REPORTED sexual crimes. I bet the rape rate is 0% in Iran, but then they also don't have ANY gays there at all, either. According to their president, "homosexuality is a western problem".

Japan reporting very few of the actual cases is not something unexpected. In Japan so is the victim just as shunned as the perp. Sticking out is not approved of. This is the basis for the many subway molestations as well as the girls don't dare to speak up due to them being shamed as well if they are recognised. There have been surveys made on Japanese women and the number who have been molested at least once is very large. By contrast so would the same number in Sweden be very low.

Then there are the fact that the actual laws in Japan isn't very protective of women. While Sweden have a zero excuse for sex crimes so does Japan accept anything from invited into the apartment to walking alone at night as the victims own fault.

So Sweden is one of the safest places to live as woman and Japan is one of the unsafest, while it's the other way around if you are a sex criminal.

According to the 7th United Nations Survey of Crime Trends and Operations of Criminal Justice Systems, Japan ranked 54th out of the 65 reported countries in rape crime rates, on a per capita basis at 0.018 cases per 1000 people. The United States, in turn, ranked 9th at 0.301 cases per 1000 people. That's close to 17 times higher than Japan's per capita reported case rates.

So even IF you hypothesized that 10 TIMES the rate of reported cases in Japan are actually going unreported, the United States would STILL have close to TWICE the rape rate in comparison - that's not even taking into consideration the number of rape cases which may be going unreported in the US.

These feminist organizations and political leaders need to take into consideration such information before they chastise Japan - as well as do some soul-searching to understand what protecting freedom of expression truly entails.

I never said Japan was anywhere near the US, but the fact that many rape cases goes unreported in Japan seems pretty probable.

Given how Society in Japan is built, it would seem more likely that a woman wouldn't report such an incident compared to a western country. Doesn't have to mean there are lots of rapes, it's just most of the ones that DO occur go unreported.

The same goes for Sweden, on paper they have a high amount of rape cases because people are more likely to actually report it to the appropriate authourities, doesn't have to mean more women in total gets raped than in any other country.

I think the problem with feminists is that they piss off men so much that they push us to rape them to shut the fuck up. Like "lay off my porn or I'm gonna come over there and fuck you in the ass!" kind of deal.

Can we say fuck here? Everyone else here seems to censor themselves, whilst complaining about censorship in the process -___-
